Wings of Earth: 8 - Fastest Track: A Smart Space Opera Series Kindle Edition
Falsely accused of destroying an Institute science vessel, Captain Ethan Walker discovers the attack might be covering something far more sinister. The assassination of one of the Coalition's most beloved citizens.
Chancellor Chei Lu.
The Commonwealth of Pirates has rules against killing a political icon. Racing to prove his innocence, Ethan must uncover the truth before the Council of Captains demands he pay for his actions.
Fighting to clear his name of murder, Captain Walker and his crew, head to a lawless freeport on the edge of rival pirate territory, only to discover the chancellor may not be dead. With no other option, they must attempt the impossible, and rescue Chancellor Lu.
If they fail, Walker will lose his position in the only group that can give him protection against the Coalition.
But, if they succeed, it will catapult the Commonwealth into a civil war.

Eric Michael Craig is a Science Fiction author living in the Manzano Mountains of New Mexico. It has been said that Eric writes "intelligent science fiction" where the characters and story come first, and a believable science foundation provides the backdrop to the action. Before he retired from the corporate world, Eric was the Director of Research for a private consulting laboratory where he learned how to explain science in ways that could be understood even by those who weren't technically oriented.
When not writing, Eric plays guitar and bass and occasionally dabbles in art of various forms.
He also owns way too many dogs, and as a result, is often involved in heroic battles with mountains of dog hair.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2022This author is the best I have read since I found Spider Robinson! He sure can tell a story, and he sure is a master of the English language! When is book number 9 coming??? Our hero has to become Emperor of the known Universe before the series ends!!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2022My wife thinks I’ve been reading the same book for the last couple of weeks. Not so! All eight as a continuous story is great. Don’t start unless you are committed.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2024I liked this book, though it continued with the somewhat darker tone of the last book. This time Walker is trying to track down the assassination of one of the Coalition's citizens....and naturally Walker has been framed for the deed.
A good book, and maybe (?) the end of the series? Hard to tell exactly; there might be a "Season Two" pop up shortly. We'll see. Either way, this is a good series of books and they are all recommended.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2022Cannot wait for what is next. Hopefully quicker than this book was written. No criticism just excitement. Looking forward to more intrigue.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2022It keeps you engaged and looking for what will happen next! I’m looking forward to the next book and how things come together.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2023This series has kept me hooked! Each book adds more interesting events that add interesting twists. Looking forward to the next book.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2022This space operate once you get You can't put it down I can hardly wait for the next series to come out And I really hope But they don't leave me hanging
- Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2022Amazingly and against all odds, Captain Ethan Walker is still alive. He has stared into the maw of death many times at this point, but managed to pull himself back for another adventure. This time, he is forced into the impossible decision of saving his own bacon or avoiding civil war. And since he has fully embraced the pirate life, the decision is far from settled. Craig takes us on a wild ride as he dips and weaves through a massive political conflict. Walker is far removed from his book one ideals, so it was fascinating to watch Fastest Track play out. (And, as always, Quinn's antics stick out as hilarious highlights.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Gran finale
Mi è piaciuto molto e spero sinceramente che l'autore voglia continuare la storia. Non conoscevo lo scrittore ma mi sono letta tutta la serie d'un fiato. Molta azione, personaggi ben delineati. Aspetto la fine. Intanto mi leggo gli altri romanzi, anche se hanno altri personaggi.
